Idle cable broke

My idle cable broke in the exposed section where it connects on the end over the top of the valve cover. Is there a good McGyver trick to joining these two broken cable ends back together? Perhaps there is some sort of clamp that I can put on both broken ends to join them.

Well, you could get a cable splice at the hardware store I guess...

The one where you crimp two cables together,

Hey, this might be a solution to my stretched cable
